An American Carol - Must See???

Lets go see this movie! I heard theaters across the nation are omitting it from their marquee & handing out blank ticket stubs in order to tamper with its revenue figures. You know u got a winner when shit like that goes down!




Lounging, Beduin Style

Cancel, Cancel, Cancel! I've had enough Hookah for a while. Headaches were supposed to be reserved for binge drinking, who knew smokin' the Shisha could have the same effect? What really did it was those self lighting coal pucks. NO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT use them instead of natural coal. They will make you want to puke & ruin the flavor of the tobacco.

The only acceptable form of coal is natural Mesquite lump charcoal. It is heavy, burns hotter & much longer than other charcoal. Another must is the Apple or Pear head. By placing the Shisha in freshly carved fruit you get a smoother & longer burn. I havent tried this yet, but using a lattice style iron or steel screen instead of aluminum foil should eliminate the, what I've heard, toxic fumes emitted by the foil. Time will tell.

I don't know why, but the sudden urge to trash The General in Super Mario Kart just popped in my head, it's time to set up ye olde Lounge again!

Hookah Tyme!

Oh man, is it going to be a long week! I've got overnights until next Sunday (Sept 14), at which point our plans to revisit Nubia Cafe sound good indeed. Nubia, It's what will keep me going as I drudge along. The General must feel about the same, that with waking up every morning knowing full & well he's supposed to be in class. At least there's Starbucks to cheer him up, & the rings, & Whole Foods. In fact, he will probably loose the dreary thoughts of skipping out on his responsibilities after his second Goji berry scone!hookahtyme (70k image)

This is The General tending the hot coals on my Hookah. We had some good times that night, but the Asian Sensation, clearly upset about his departure the following morning, left us all feeling a bit empty. Lolo 2 was just not the same, & as much as I love a good hot coal tossing match, I think it was more a bitter statement that the Asian Sensation would not be a part of the Lounge for quite a while. Don't worry dude, we'll keep a half bottle of Amstel Light in your place at all times. Then again, COD4 sessions are likely to become a thing of frequency, pending bandwidth availability... ArabRabbi, the 360 is down to $199, that's probably less than you paid for your SNES!

Hey!... Maybe I should repack my Halo 3 console & get one of those instead! It's only a matter of time before someone drops a hot coal on it...




LounG3 Session Next Week!

Where else would the sweet aroma of anis be appreciated more than here at the Lounge?

All needed now is some warmer weather, wishin' for some Global Warming, I am... Perhaps some Hookah would help increase my carbon footprint. While we're at it, how about throwing El Generalis iPhone on the fire, bet u $100 it burns hot as hickory! And fast, thanks to 3g technology.

Will Ramadan hinder your puff-puff abilities? Let's compromise, I'll skip the Zohar class if you roll the joint!

I'll buy the short ribs if you skip a nights worth of beauty rest... Achilles can come too. Just keep the bling to a minimum.
